Unity Timestamps: Lost Love [R11 PE P1] [Motkeyz]

[Aristos]

The j in jamón is pronounced exactly like the German "ch" in "doch" or "Bach."
In fact, unlike what many people think, we didn't inherit that sound from the Arabs but from our Germanic Austrian kings in the 16th and 17th C.
Bacon in Spanish translates as "tocino" . The family name Tocino exists in Spanish, just like Bacon in English. I find it really cool.

I'll see myself to the door now, don't worry

Now enlighten us with the etymology of "hermano".

 

[Irgendwie Irgendwo]

And there was apparently one of my German teachers in high school bullshitting us by claiming the "ch" was unique to the German language. He may be right though that you shouldn't do drills teaching that sound as it's a surefire way to ruin your voice.

------------------------

In general, I thought that Bacon was just a nickname and that Hamon was his real name. Just like Gaz is apparently not her real name but a wordplay with her family name.

Ehm... Ok ...
Well, it derives from Latin "frater germanus" which meant "germ/sprout brother" (I don't know if full brother is correct in English but I mean brother with the same mother and father, as opposed to half brother).
In reality, the qualifier germanus was broadly used to mean "of the same kin/race", and that's where the Germans and Germanic's name derived from.
It shares the same root as the English germ (germen in Spanish) meaning origin, as in the germ of an idea or a wheatgerm.
Other romance languages opted for the adaptation of the "frater" part (frère in French, fratello in Italian) instead of the germanus part.

Well, he or she was shockingly wrong.
Apart from in Spanish and German, that sound exists in Arabic, Hebrew, Greek, Russian or Dutch (in Dutch more or less), and I'm sure that also in other languages I'm not aware of.
Every time you see a Greek word transcribed as "ch", it represents that sound ("chronos", for instance.)
The same aplies to the Russian transcription "kh".
EDIT: I've just realized that perhaps your teacher referred to the softer typically German "ch" sound, as in "ich" or "sicher." In that case maybe he/she was right.

I'll leave it here. By this point you've already figured I'm a language freak and that's enough embarrassment for one day.

I lived in Mexico City for part of my High School years. One of my teachers (either Spanish or Mexican History) said that the word "hermano" started being used because the Germans helped the Spaniards drive out the Moors.

"ich"...the "ch" sounds like "sugar". In Spanish, azucar. Not to mention the name "Michelle". Or the Hebrew Shabbat.

For the "ch" sound like "chill", I give you the Sanskrit word chowdhury. And, of course, chupacabra.

Never heard of that, to be honest. I'm not denying it but I'd find it weird.
By the time the Moors arrived, most of the Iberian Peninsula as well as southern France had been populated and ruled for centuries by a Germanic people, the Visigoths, who had converted to Christianity and preserved the Roman culture (just like the Saxons in Britain). When the Moors invaded the country, those Christians had to take shelter in the mountains in the North, and from there they started the Reconquest. It would have been weird for them to suddenly start using the word "germanus" meaning "brother" in recognition of the help from other Germanic peoples (mainly the Franks) when they themselves were already Germanic.
The expression "frater germanus" had been used for centuries. I believe that it just so happened that in some territories the local vulgar Latin preferred to shorten it using the "frater" part of the expression, while other regions opted for the germanus part. In modern day Portuguese they say "irmao" and in Catalan "germà".

"ich"...the "ch" sounds like "sugar". In Spanish, azucar. Not to mention the name "Michelle". Or the Hebrew Shabbat.

For the "ch" sound like "chill", I give you the Sanskrit word chowdhury. And, of course, chupacabra.

Actually, the sound in sugar or Michelle would be represented by "sch" in German, like "Schindler" or "Spanisch".
That soft ch sound in "ich" is something different, it's made with your throat.

It took me quite some practice to finally get the hang of that sound when I started studying German some years ago, but for some of my fellow students... it drove them mad then and still drives them mad today even after years of trying.

At least 4 of the sounds on that page you linked are sh like sugar.

Come on, just tell us IMPORTANT things, like the origins of the greatest and most useful word EVER. DOH.

Just a thought.

I think in the entire game only Heather calls Bacon Hamon (which ofc is his real name).

Uninstall all previous version of Visual C++ (2017, 2019). Then install C++ 2015 (x86 for 32-bit game build or x64 for 64-bit game build). But since Windows 10 build 1909 or earlier you no longer need C++. Make sure optional downloads are enabled too.

It comes from the old Franks, they used to named some people "les têtes d'eau" (literally water heads). We can suppose it was the first description of the hydrocephalus syndrom, by the time passing it became the popular description(but misused) of the village idiot. Thus those idiots kept repeating "deau-deau"-identical sound as Doh....many centuries after and due to the low cost of plane travels Americans bring back home a version of 'tête d'eau" to describe a weird tribe composed of orange skins individuals.

TY for this information. It clears up my confusion (I always thought it was created by HOMER SIMPSON).

Just a thought.

Damn, when did it jump to 25%? Last progress update I saw it was 10% ... good news!

 

[Chadwick12348]

I think everyone working on this game - including me - are white. Here were I live there is maybe one black guy among 1,000 white people with or whitout Arabic origins. I knew more black people back in in China as I do in my hometown.

To be honest, I never thought about adding a black male character, because the story is about MC and Bacon (I think Bacon and his dad are Hispanic).

hey thanks for the reply, i appreciate it. im not demanding anything, was just a thought the game is pretty solid btw

 

[Chadwick12348]

Why do you want more dudes?

what if i asked for more variation in dudes because im bi, or its probably because im a girl... dont let my user name fool you, not only guys play porn games my confused friend.

But:

• the MC won't be doing anything with these dudes - it's not that type of game, and
• the dudes won't be doing anything with the girls - it's not that type of game

but there are other guys in the game right??? i said nothing about "doing anything" with anybody...

 

[Sanguinis]

Already at 75%? Damn son

 

[goobdoob]

This is a porn pirate site. It's assumed when you ask for more characters of a specific type that you want the game to have sexy time with them.

Especially when you answer "why do you want more dudes?" with "what if I asked for more variation in dudes because I'm bi, or its probably because im a girl".
